Tesla warns White House over tariffs in unsigned letter: It's a polite way to say that bipolar tariff regime is screwing

[Dulcinea]

(Fortune) -snip- Just days after Elon Musk turned the White House lawn into a Tesla showroom, the company has written to the Trump administration with concerns about international retaliation to tariffs.

In an unsigned letter addressed to U.S. trade representative Jamieson Greer, Tesla warned that "U.S. exporters are inherently exposed to disproportionate impacts when other countries respond to U.S. trade actions."

The company cautioned that aggressive tariffs could lead to retaliatory measures from other nations that could directly impact American manufacturers and exporters. The EV maker highlighted the potential fallout for the automotive sector, pointing to past trade actions that have triggered immediate countermeasures.

1. "Tesla Warns Whitehouse"

So if don and Elon get divorced who gets the kids? Selfishness squared. By the way, we are the kids.

3. Neither of them wants the kids.

Like any bad divorce, it's about money & power. (Hey...8000 posts!)

4. Congrats

On 8K. Keep on pounding that keyboard. Remember the good old days of boring Joe in the White House obeying the law and not strong arming the Supreme Court.

2. Something about dogs and fleas

Trump is an uninformed bigoted imbecile and muskrat decided to ride with him to the White House. Hopefully eventually both will devour each other and get rid of the constant drama . The whole country is getting an ulcer from their unfunny stale routine.

5. Doesn't matter

Musk has totally destroyed the brand so very few people are going to want to buy one moving forward, tariff or no tariff.
